Chapter 926 You Still Said You Didn’t Prepare in Advance?

The idea proposed by Chang Haonan is a bit jumpy.

Due to complex historical and practical reasons, China generally does not participate in nuclear disarmament or nuclear arms control negotiations.

Don't ask, the answer is to support global nuclear disarmament.

But do you really want me to destroy nuclear weapons?

Then I'm sorry, goodbye.

Even if there is really no way to be forced to participate, it's just a formality.

There are very few cases where people take the initiative to rush to join in.

Affected by this inertia, although Ermao's nuclear disarmament issue is an exception among exceptions, China still only participated in the formulation and approval of relevant resolutions at the Security Council level, and did not directly participate in the negotiations.

Therefore, the three people around him were unable to figure out Chang Haonan's brain circuit at the first time.

Having said that, the latter naturally went straight to the point:

"As far as I know, Ermao's Preluki Air Force Base still has 19 Tu-160 bombers that were divided when the alliance disintegrated."

"According to the agreement reached in 1994, these nuclear-related equipment should be destroyed like those intercontinental missiles, but Russia has always hoped to obtain 8 of them to offset Ermao's debts in the energy field over the years."

"There was nothing wrong with this matter, but because of the incident in 1999, the two sides who had reached a consensus started arguing again, and have been arguing until now, and have not come up with a new solution..."

This is completely explicit.

"So you just said that you want to cooperate with the Russians to add these planes to five and divide them directly?"

Mr. Zhang's expression and behavior are still normal, but the speed of speaking this sentence is much faster than usual.

Obviously, his heart is not as calm as it seems.

The Tu-160 supersonic strategic bomber with a variable swept wing design belongs to a special technical route formed in a special period.

Not to mention that China is not yet able to design and build such a nearly 300-ton aircraft. Even if it can, it is impossible to start from scratch in the 21st century and invest huge resources to develop such a thing.

Times have changed.

But it is impossible to develop.

If you can find a few ready-made products at a lower price, it will be really good.

And in the process of using and maintaining these aircraft, you can also gain some experience in the design and manufacture of large aircraft.

Definitely worth it.

As a 71-year-old comrade, Fu Youquan stayed up from last night until the second half of the night and was a little drowsy.

As a result, after hearing what Chang Haonan said, the whole person instantly became energetic:

"There is something... Xiao Chang may not know."

He said slowly:

"Those Tu-160, in fact, we considered buying them back with a sum of money as early as 1994, and even sent people to investigate, but the news leaked at a critical moment, and the two countries on the other side joined forces to suppress it..."

Although he was talking about the difficulties he faced in the past, judging from the excitement Fu Youquan showed, the reason why he mentioned this topic was probably because he was greatly shocked and worried that he would be happy for nothing.

He didn't really think it was impossible.

Chang Haonan had seen through this:

"Mr. Fu, the past was the past, and the present is the present."

"In 1994, the top leaders in Moscow wanted to get on the same page with the Americans. How can our diplomatic environment be compared with the present?"

"At present, these 19 planes are hot potatoes for Ermao. He has to pay for maintenance from time to time. He can't wait to get rid of them. The Russians have already failed to negotiate alone, and they also need a third party as a trigger to restart the negotiations. As for the Americans..."

Chang Haonan paused for a moment and smiled a little:

"Excuse me, Mr. Little Bush is not as smart as his father. Now he is probably thinking about how to quickly get into Aiwuhan to restore his support rate. As long as we relax on the route issue, they are unlikely to bite to death on this matter..."

"In short, this is a win-win situation for everyone..."

"Well..."

Originally, Fu Youquan just wanted to find a way to convince himself.

And the reasons provided by Chang Haonan were obviously enough.

As for Qiao Chenqing…

As the highest commander of the Air Force, he was naturally very happy.

After all, if this could really be accomplished, the Air Force would benefit the most—

After the Tu-4 bomber was retired in 1988, the Chinese Air Force completely lost the ability to carry out strategic missions.

The three models of the H-27 bomber have a range that is not enough to deter major opponents.

Not even Guam.

In addition, since they have never been equipped with practical nuclear weapons carriers, the Air Force lost all nuclear-related positions after the first few nuclear tests.

In other words, the diversity of the Chinese Air Force's combat missions has always been absent in terms of China's status as a major power.

However, the more critical the situation is, the more we should understand the principle of making a fortune in silence.

Therefore, although Qiao Chenqing had already planned the new bomber regiment in his mind, he still looked steady on the surface... steady as a rock:

"Mr. Zhang, should we consult with experts in international relations about this matter first?"

"After all, the Russians are using the nominal debt repayment, and if we directly pay for the purchase, will it be possible to touch upon the relevant arms sales restrictions?"

In fact, this question is not important——

It's so funny, what arms sales restrictions?

As long as the top three officials all nodded, who will impose restrictions?

However, even this kind of detail has been considered by Chang Haonan:

"Chief, we can also use the name of debt repayment like the Russians."

He picked up his briefcase and took out a contract from it:

"When we introduced the full set of production lines and technologies for the Tu-334 passenger aircraft, we stipulated that some core components of the D436 engine would be supplied by Ermao's Motor Sich Group, and the Ivchenko-Progress Design Bureau would be responsible for technology transfer."

"But since last year, due to problems on Ermao's side, the progress of supply and technology transfer has been hindered, and the entire C808 passenger aircraft project has been delayed for nearly a year."

"This transaction is officially guaranteed by Ermao. Now that both of their companies are unable to afford the penalty, the debt will naturally fall on Kiev's head..."

"..."

Three inhalations sounded almost at the same time from Chang Haonan's side.

Chang Haonan actually didn't say the second half of his words.

Of course, Ermao can choose to deny it.

Moreover, if it was put on for more than ten years, they might really default on their debt.

However, in 2001, the other party's senior management was relatively normal, and it was impossible for them to completely ruin their business dealings with China for such a small matter.

Of course, for the other three people, whether this sentence was there or not was no longer important.

"Comrade Haonan, this is a serious matter. I cannot make a decision on my own."

Mr. Zhang's address to Chang Haonan also became formal:

"So, now you need to write a formal report to me. I will explain the situation to the superiors and see if your plan can be approved."

"The time window is very narrow, so I won't say anything polite. You need to act quickly. It's best to complete it before this evening."

But Chang Haonan was not panicked at all:

"Commander, I have prepared all the relevant information here. I just need to find a place to organize it. If everything goes well, I can hand it over to you before dawn."

Hearing such a guarantee, Mr. Zhang's eyes lit up:

"Then let the comrade in charge of the meeting arrange a room here, and prepare computers and other equipment for you."

"If this thing can be done, I will personally recommend you for credit!"

"Yes!"

Chang Haonan immediately stood up and stood at attention.

After packing up his belongings, Chang Haonan and the other two left the meeting room under the guidance of the meeting staff.

At the moment when the door behind him closed, Chang Haonan, who was about to take a step, was stopped by Fu Youquan.

"Mr. Fu?"

Chang Haonan turned his head.

Fu Youquan's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.

But there was a question clearly written in his complicated eyes -

You said you didn't prepare in advance?

But in the end, maybe he really didn't know how to ask.

Or maybe he simply believed that this was a coincidence.

In short, he still waved to Chang Haonan:

"Forget it, you go and get busy..."
